Process design and implementation of a global online assembly composed of 100 participants and 100 mediators/recruiters. Deliberativa WCA Lab piloted sessions and designed the multilingual methodology. The draw was designed together with the Sortition Foundation using a population density map that gave everyone on the planet an equal chance of being selected. The mediators recruited, translated and paid the participants. A special effort was made to meet the socio-economic criteria.
After 68 hours of deliberations, a document called “People’s Declaration for a Sustainable Future of Planet Earth” was produced.
